Thank God Senator Jeff Sessions is approved as Attorney General. He can now address the insanity caused by the word confusion that arises when words change meaning, and people are attacked for holding an understanding of what a word means that was mainstream just a few years ago. An example:

In the 30’s the great International Business Machines company was known for how they cultivated teamwork. One avenue was by singing company songs, to boost morale and encourage loyalty among their (all male) management and sales force. It worked, and IBM grew to be the giant it is even today.

Imagine this very serious body of IBM employees singing this song to the tune of: “Painting the Clouds with Sunshine“

We don’t pretend we’re gay. We always feel that way, Because we’re filling the world with sunshine. With I.B.M. machines, We’ve got the finest means, For brightly painting the clouds with sunshine.

Records we make, only to break. Teaching the whole world to know, I.B.M.’s line, will all the time, help to grow. When things don’t look bright, Our products make them right, And keep on painting the clouds with sunshine.

Is that conclusive proof that the whole IBM sales force was exclusively gay in the 30’s?

Of course not, but that is the line of thinking the Democrats used to label Jeff Sessions a racist.

This is exactly why words must be interpreted in light of what the meaning of the word was at the time the words were written.

And this goes for the constitution too. All changes to the constitution must be made via amendments, not by redefining the meaning of words.
